About the Editors' Picks Awards

Each year, the Cruise Critic editors draw on their collective cruise wisdom to select their picks of the best in cruising for the annual Editors' Picks Awards. Some awards are decided easily, others are fiercely debated, but all are given much consideration to create a list which honors those that offer the very best in each category.

Categories range from the "Best Cruise Ship for Families" to the "Best Buffet", and highlight the best of the big ships, as well as the best of the luxury and niche vessels. To keep pace with cruise trends and innovations, new awards are added and existing awards altered each year where necessary. In 2009, new awards include "Best Cruise Line Private Island" and "Best New Ship". We compare like-for-like and don't put a big fun-packed family ship up against a luxury vessel, but all awards are equally prestigious.

Cruise Critic's sister site in the UK, CruiseCritic.co.uk, issues its own set of awards in order to reflect the categories and winners most relevant to a UK/European audience.

Throughout the year we continue to highlight the best of cruising in our regular Editors' Picks features and in our detailed cruise ship reviews and ratings, featuring more than 200 ships. To complete the picture and offer priceless insight from our members, Cruise Critic also features over 30,000 member reviews.
